Ski Day 1, Arapahoe Basin, Camber

Ski Conditions:

Snow was great. It was warm, 50 degrees and bright. No clouds at all, no wind until about 2 pm. Felt like a great spring day.

What was not great were the lines and the crowds. In the morning it wasn’t bad. After lunch it was terrible. We stopped skiing around 1 because of it. With only one lift and one run open – we expected a little wait. We forgot it was Fall Break for many schools in Colorado.

If A-Basin gets some snow over the next 2 weeks, they’ll be able to open the front side. It’ll be awesome.

It felt weird to pull on the ski pants, slap on the helmet and strap on the long boards after a long break. Then again, the last day I skied was just 6 months ago. The Xterra did much nicer than the Sonata, thanks for asking. It’s a manly car.

Day with Camber – priceless. I love her heart and spirit. We laughed pretty much all day long. Some pics:

    Was Camber snow boarding? All the kids in the back ground are? Have you tried yet? Hope to make it out this year, but with another kiddo on the way not sure.
